  • If you don’t have a lot of assets, it might be easier to go to your local bank or credit union and ask for help in doing simple processes like creating a budget or paying down debt. On the flip side, if you have a lot of assets, it’s really easy to find a wonderful financial advisor to help you navigate your financial journey.
  • Signs like being given a strict allowance and spending limits, threats of cutting off financial support, limiting access to money, and even not being able to pursue a career may not feel significant, but the longer it happens, the more they compound.
  • Society has a tendency to shame women when they get hurt and scammed by men. It’s important to remember that it’s not your fault, it’s not embarrassing, and it happens to more people than we realize.
  • It’s helpful to talk to a counselor or therapist about serious concerns in your relationship - a third party and professional can tell you whether your partner is exhibiting normal behavior or not.
